5D BIM/VDC – done right!

Next generation estimating for 5D BIM

Sigma Estimates is the next-generation 5D BIM/VDC software for the AEC industry; built to be a BIM estimating platform, Sigma gives users an extremely advanced yet user friendly and intuitive solution. Unlike alternative solutions, Sigma is 100% adoptable and object-oriented like the fundamental principles of BIM.

Take advantage of Direct Live Link to Autodesk Revit and BIM 360

Through a global partnership with Autodesk, Sigma expands its options to let you create a 5D model directly from a 3D model in BIM 360 or with Revit Live Link – in one click!

This unparalleled and easy to use digital tool from Sigma Estimates is created for the AEC industry to gain a quick and easy way to create a 5D BIM/VDC model, budget or cost estimation from a 3D model or connect an existing 5D model. Sigma allows you to:

Build a 5D model, budget or cost estimate directly from a 3D model – in one click

Extract quantities from a 3D model to connect with an existing 5D model, budget or cost estimate

Visually understand and explore the connections of the 3D/5D models

Slice ´n dice the 3D/5D connected model to validate data for outliers and missing information and present information to project members for reporting, feedback and smooth collaboration

Build on your own historical cost data or take advantage of recognized construction cost information RSMeans data – from square foot to detailed 5D data that adds cost, activities, production rates, durations, descriptions and much more.

5D – How you build

With improved efficiency increased profitability, reduced risk, less need for changes and rework, construction professionals use 5D BIM to effectively construct and manage future projects. The platform provided by Sigma will enable users to embrace the next level of 5D VDC workflows as it offers easy to use, and time saving options for users of any level to participate effectively.

Harness the power of cost data

Bring together design, planning and finance in real time – Like the fundamentals of BIM, this platform is based on objects and works seamlessly through all stages of the project lifecycle and can be combined with the integrated power of RSMeans data or build on your own historical data to make it adoptable to any project size or complexity.

The opportunity to combine design, finance and real-time updates means decisions can now be made based on accurate and up-to-date information to minimize risk, improve collaboration, and save time – through one central model for all project stakeholders.
